It was a fun movie. Lots of action (much of it delightfully impossible) and a star (Joey King) that you can invest yourself in. The only cast member I knew was Dominic Cooper, who was the Ottoman prince in "Dracula Untold." He's a fine actor. He's the bad guy here, trying to steal a kingdom.
But Joey King in the title role stole the show. Never mind that she's such a cute gal. She's quite talented and made her character almost believable in spite of all the over-the-top action.
Cooper's henchmen were the one major weak spot. They were so stereotyped one could almost guess their lines before they spoke them. But not bad enough to ruin the movie.
Excellent fight scenes, a few good one liners, and likeable characters. I'll watch it again.
